It is bec ause of his pioneering work that my darling son and daughter in law are expecting their first baby in 4 weeks time. He has brought so much happiness to many, many families. Rest Peacefully Sir Robert and thank you from all our family.

Hear hear Zacs................

[jno]

and both scientists too - one worked on emulsifiers for ice cream, the other on infertility.

[wimp]

Maggie who??

[Zacs-Master]

Now don't be coy. It doesn't suit you.

[wimp]

Maggie May!!!

[Zacs-Master]

Now you're just being flippant which does an injustice to the integrity of your original question. Although, to be fair, it wasn't really going anywhere.

[wimp]

Zacs master...it was you who lowered the tone by putting Maggie's name in with such a great man!

[Baldric]

I think in future years more people will remember Maggie!

[craft1948]

Sorry wimp your credibility has just shrunk to zero.............

[paddywak]

Maybe so baldrick, but not for the happiness she brought into the world.

[paddywak]

^^^
sorry for misspelling your name Baldric

[wimp]

Was never bothered about cred!

[craft1948]

Sorry paddy but through her policies she certainly brought me happiness, and prosperity.

[Psybbo]

Zacs and craft, surely you two went off-topic?

[Baldric]

I was not impressed with the expenses paid trip to The Falklands she sent me on, however her policies allowed me to live long and prosper when I left The Royal Marines.

[craft1948]

Are you sure about that Psybbo?
